“THE BEST PET SITTER EVER! Polina is truly the kindest, most thoughtful person you could ever hope to care for your pets.

She kept me constantly updated with pictures and messages, which made all the difference. I could tell my cats were happy, calm, and so well cared for. Polina, thank you from the bottom of my heart—you are a gem, and I am so grateful for everything you did.”

About: I have helped raise three kitties! I have additionally helped to raise a puppy who was a bit reactive and required additional training. While it was tough, it was very rewarding and I appreciate the way it helped me better communicate with my dog. I am currently taking a very long break from corporate work, and would love to spend this year regrouping but doing one of my favorite things: Hanging out with and helping adorable animals! I am extremely flexible with my schedule, and willing to travel. Currently, I care for my pets by providing weekly brushing, daily feeding, daily litter box cleaning/rotation, weekly litter deep cleans, and play time. For dogs, I am comfortable, feeding, walking with a harness, collar, as well as a gentle-leader for our more reactive friends. While doing home visits, I am comfortable and happy to supervise outdoor/backyard time. I love long walks and am comfortable with dogs up to 100 lbs.

About: All fur babies are family!Hey there, pet lovers! I am all about fun and love when it comes to caring for your furry friends. From a young age, I have had an undeniable passion for animals, and it brings me so much joy to provide them with the care and attention they deserve. Starting at the age of 13, I began pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family, and it quickly became clear to me that spending time with animals is a passion of mine. Alongside this, I have also volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I discovered the importance of creating a positive and nurturing environment for our furry companions. I firmly believe that our pets are not just pets; they are cherished family members who bring us unconditional love and happiness. With this mindset, I am committed to treating your fur babies as if they were my own. Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to share my home with 5 large dogs and 2 cats. While I currently don't have any pets due to their passing, my experiences have given me a deep understanding of different breeds and their unique personalities. Whether your furry friend is small or large, I am confident in my ability to provide them with the care, attention, and playtime they need. I can rest assure you that your furry friends will be in good hands. I am dedicated to creating a safe and enjoyable environment for them, where they can thrive and feel loved. I currently work a 9-5 job Monday through Friday. When I am not working will be spending all of my time making sure your fur babies are being taken care of and shown much love! My pet-sitting services are solely offered in the client's home, drop-ins or walking. I will make sure to maintain a safe and happy environment for your pets. I am happy to follow through with your pet's daily routine and schedule. During my stay, I ensure your pet has fresh water and food, and plenty of exercise and playtime to keep them active and healthy. I will take the time to learn your pet's unique needs and behaviors, providing personalized care that promotes both their physical and emotional well-being.

“Ida was very loving and attentive to my 2 large dogs while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and a video. When Harlee had some issues with her IBD, Ida went above and beyond to address the situation. Excellent care. Highly recommend.”


“Ashley was awesome! Very attentive house sitting my kitty Simba and communicative as well. She also took great, funny and cute pictures of him while I was away and was gracious enough to bring up my packages. When I came back, Simba’s fur was soft and shiny indicating he was grooming himself (and happy!) I would absolutely hire her to watch Simba again!”

“Ravi was a perfect sitter! He was very communicative and sent lots of pictures updates of the dogs. They seemed to enjoy his company also based on how cuddly they seemed in the photos 😁. He also cared for the house well and it was tidy when we returned. Our flight was delayed and he was flexible with the end time, something that I know no sitter can guarantee but it was so appreciated! We would absolutely use Ravi again!”


“Daniela was so amazing! She was able to accommodate us very last minute, she followed all instructions very well, she enjoyed playing with my pups, and sent lots of photos and videos. We will definitely be booking her services again!”


“Mya did an excellent job caring for our dog! She was incredibly kind and patient with our shy pup, making him feel comfortable and secure. She kept us updated and sent us multiple photos throughout her stay. Her professionalism extended to taking great care of our home as well. We felt completely at ease leaving both our dog and our house in her hands. We will definitely reach out to Mya again in the future!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 9 years and have regularly volunteered with a local dog rescuer to foster dogs before they find their forever home. I have experience with dogs of all ages and look forward to caring for yours! I work from home most days and generally have the ability to move my schedule around if you need care multiple days in a row. I take frequent breaks for walks or play time with the dogs. I’ve got a large fenced in yard with plenty of room for your dog to run and play in. I’ve also got plenty of room in my house if a crate is needed. I’ll take care of your dog as if he or she was my own.

“Kathleen was amazing. Sent updates all the time and even pictures of my boys. They had some tummy issues and I felt so bad but she reassured me all was good and gave my boys plenty of snuggles. Even my neighbors said she was great”


About: Hi, I’m Liv, a lifelong pet lover with extensive experience caring for dogs and cats! Before getting my own dog, Lucy, I spent years pet sitting through TrustedHousesitters, receiving great reviews from pet owners who appreciated my attentive care and reliability. Now that I have Lucy—a sweet and energetic Wheaten Terrier—I’ve decided to offer my pet-sitting services locally. What sets me apart? I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and entertained while you’re away. I’m experienced with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and care needs, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra attention. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, playtime, or snuggles, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and routine. I’d love the chance to meet your furry friend and provide them with top-notch care while giving you peace of mind. Let’s chat about how I can help! I work from home, so I’m home all day to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and care for your pet. Since I already have a dog, Lucy, I’m used to keeping a consistent routine with walks, potty breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Whether your pet loves company or just needs someone around to keep them comfortable, I can easily accommodate their needs. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and part of the family. Since I work from home, they’ll get plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. My dog, Lucy, is friendly and gentle, but I can also accommodate pets who prefer their own space. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, whether that means scheduled walks, mealtime routines, or just extra snuggles. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s environment familiar and stress-free. I follow all provided instructions carefully, maintain their usual routine, and send regular updates so pet parents have peace of mind. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, medication, or just companionship, I ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away.

Ida was simply outstanding during her house sitting service, which included four overnights. She kept us informed with plenty of photos (and videos). Most importantly she cared for our almost 2 year old medium bernedoodle like he was her own, be it the walks, play time, feeding, and daily RX. She kept great care of the home keeping things very clean and tidy in our absence. I would highly recommend for any service and it is truly apparent she absolutely loves being around dogs.

Zoe did a great job looking after our dog. She left the house as she found it which we really appreciate. She stayed late after our flight was delayed. She was responsive to our texts and sent pictures along with very good updates. She followed the instructions we left for our dogs care. We would definitely have her stay again.

Jason did an amazing job! He took very good care of my two pups and I got multiple pictures a day with updates throughout the stay so I always felt very well informed on what was going on. In addition, he left the house clean and even washed the sheets before he left. I couldn't have been happier with his service.

My cats and I think Faatima is absolutely fantastic! She is Reliable, great communicator, very caring trustworthy just absolutely fantastic! It is always such a treat when she can watch my fur babies! My cats are always so calm when I come home after she’s been here! I’m so grateful for her and will definitely use her again!
